How ShoptoAds collects, uses, and protects your personal data
2026/10/13
This Privacy Policy describes how ShoptoAds ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal information when you use our website at https://shoptoads.com (the "Site") and the services we provide (collectively, the "Services").
ShoptoAds is an independent online tool that uses artificial intelligence to help businesses and creators turn product links or product photos into graphic ad creatives — including ad visuals, headlines, and calls to action. AI generation is performed by third-party AI service providers on our behalf.
We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data responsibly. If you have any questions, please contact us at support@shoptoads.com.
The data controller for your personal data is the operator of ShoptoAds, reachable at the contact details above.
We collect the following categories of information:
You can register or sign in using your Google or GitHub account. We receive your name, email address, and profile picture from the provider you choose, based on the permissions you grant. We do not collect or store a password for your account. You may also choose to upload a custom profile picture in your account settings.
Payments are processed by Stripe and/or Creem. We do not store full credit card numbers on our servers. We do receive and store a tokenized customer identifier, transaction records, subscription status, and invoice information necessary for billing and support.
To generate ad creatives, you may submit product page links or upload product photos, along with the messages or directions you want to communicate. When you provide a product link, we retrieve the public product page to extract product details and images. Prompts, uploaded images, and generated results are stored so you can view and manage them in your history.
We collect information about how you interact with the Services, including pages visited, features used, generation requests, and downloads. We also collect device and connection data such as IP address, browser type, operating system, and referring URLs.
If you contact support or subscribe to our newsletter, we collect the content of those communications and your email preferences.

Each sub-processor is contractually bound to use your data only for the purposes of providing services to us and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
Your data may be transferred to and processed in countries other than the one in which you reside. Where required by law, we use appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses or adequacy decisions to protect your data.
We implement technical and organizational measures designed to protect your personal data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These include encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, and regular security reviews. No online service is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Services. If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your personal data within 30 days, except where longer retention is required for legal, tax, accounting, or fraud-prevention purposes.
To prevent duplicate registration-credit claims and abuse, we retain a one-way HMAC of your normalized email address and the claim date after account deletion. This record cannot be used to sign in or for marketing.
Depending on your location, you may have the right to:
To exercise these rights, contact us at support@shoptoads.com. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.
The Services are not directed to children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we learn that we have collected personal data from a child, we will take steps to delete that information promptly.
The Site may contain links to third-party websites, including product pages you choose to submit. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third parties. Submitting a product link does not imply any relationship between us and the owner of that page.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version on this page with a revised effective date. Material changes may be notified by email or through the Site.
If you have any questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy or our data practices, please email us at support@shoptoads.com or use our contact page.
